OAK CREEK, Wis., Dec. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Stella & Chewy's, the category leader in freeze-dried raw and natural pet nutrition, is proud to announce its retail expansion into more than 1,400 Publix supermarkets across the Southeastern United States beginning December 2025. This marks a significant milestone in the company's mission to make high-quality, raw nutrition more accessible for dogs everywhere.

Publix shoppers in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Virginia will now be able to find Stella & Chewy's bestselling line of premium freeze-dried raw Meal Mixers, Dinner Dust, and Breakfast Sprinkles on store shelves during their regular grocery trips. Made with the highest-quality, responsibly sourced proteins, these offerings deliver the flavor, texture, and nutritional benefits pet parents expect from a raw diet. This launch reflects a shared commitment to bringing freeze-dried raw pet food to a broader audience of pet parents who are increasingly seeking natural, minimally processed, protein-rich options.

"Today's pet parents want real, natural nutrition," said Dave Champlin, Chief Sales Officer of Stella & Chewy's. "Our entrance into Publix marks another significant step in bringing freeze-dried raw pet food into more new households — helping more pet parents discover the benefits of raw nutrition and elevating the pet category. We are thrilled to partner with one of the nation's premier grocery retailers on this shared mission."

This launch into Publix follows Stella & Chewy's continued retail growth across pet specialty, major U.S. grocery, and omnichannel partners, reflecting the brand's increasing resonance with modern pet parents seeking high-quality nutrition with everyday retail accessibility. By bringing premium freeze-dried raw dog food to Publix's pet-care aisle, both companies further their shared mission of providing pet parents and their dogs the very best in nutrition.
